Take some Time.

We all have a fear of success. It is often deeply rooted and unconscious, but it is a fear worthy of effective management. There is something unsettling about even the thought of living to your highest potential.  We are often plagued by doubts.  What if that dream that we have held for so many years is not as fulfilling as we thought? What if we have been wasting our time and efforts on something that, in the end, will not provide is with the satisfaction that we desire?  What if we cannot handle the responsibility that comes with our vision?

What is the dream that you hold in your heart? Are you taking effective steps to bring your dream to fruition or do you find yourself paralyzed by logic and reason that concludes that you are a fool?  Take some time today to list all of the reasons why you cannot fulfill your dream. How much of your list is based on speculation and assumption instead of fact? How much of your list supports an old, ineffective story that you have about yourself?

Success or sabotage?  Success requires you to begin with the courage to say "yes!"

Is this going to be an incredible day? What is your greatest vision for today?
